McCann and Gattis need to get it together.

I'm sure adrenaline will carry him through 15-20 pitches, we need to be patient for a few batters until fatigue starts to set in.

Hope we can blow him up, I can't take another love fest from the commentators booth.

Sale's career relief numbers are even better than his starting numbers. Although he hasn't pitched in relief since '12.

I honestly can't believe they fired that bullet.

I guess they figure if it goes 5 they can use Price as a long relief option but man that's tough to burn Sale during this game.

Sale will finish this game if he can. Pitching needs to step it up in a major way NOW.

He got through one, which was pretty easy to see coming. Now he has to cool down and go sit and then come back out and face 3-4-5 and that's where we'll get him.

Let's get through this inning somehow, put up a crooked number, and then let the rain come.

I like we're at. The Red Sox are only down 1 but they're in a pretty bad spot right now.

I guess they're going all in with Sale today, then all hands on deck for Game 5 - probably relying heavily on Price, which I'm fine with (if there is a game 5).

Speaking of Morton's 2 year contract, the Astros have:

Keuchel
Verlander
McHugh
McCullers
Morton/Peacock

for next year's rotation

And it looks like Morton's slider and hammer are working for him now.

At 70 pitches, if he settles in he could go another 1-2 innings.

I'd get him out after this inning. Don't want their top of order batters seeing him for a 3rd time.

I think they're leaving him in for the bottom of the 4th because it's the bottom of the order. Not sure they'll let him see a third time through with the way the 1-6 guys have been hitting him. We'll see...

Exactly this. The feeling in my stomach says we're losing, but I keep looking at the scoreboard and we are up by 1.

Morton was filthy, that innning.

And I agree with the guys that are saying let's get him out before 3rd time through the lineup.

Maybe if you knew the game wouldn't get delayed. But I think you send him back out for the 5th, but with a very short leash.

Good point.

Again though I think a lot of it depends on this rain situation.

Would be a HUGE advantage if he could last until then. They'd have burned Sale with Price unavailable and we could go to Musgrove after the delay.

Morton has had better outings, but he has shown a lot of guts today. He has gotten out of some jams.

Time to get him some runs and see what he has in the 5th.

edit, cant count innings
